My wife and I are total foodies, so the food and drinks we served at our wedding were incredibly important to us. We were looking for a straightforward, plated-dinner service with good food, which Jasmine Catering assured us they could do, but ultimately left us feeling incredibly disappointed. Jasmine did a few things well that we should mention. We ordered a table of mini desserts and late-night skyline coneys which were both perfect. In our meal, we had a salad with goat cheese, scalloped potato side, and salmon entree that were all delicious. Our problems with Jasmine began with the tasting. We informed them that we wanted prime rib and salmon as our entree options, but the only food we ate during our tasting was the salmon, chicken, a vegetable medley, and bruschetta on crackers. This was bizarre to us because we never asked for chicken, but Brenda made a meal for us with it because she had some leftover. We didn't get to taste any other appetizers or sides, nor did Brenda even have a list of options for what we could ask for. She said this was because their website was being redone so she couldn't see the list of what she makes? The appetizers we ordered were hot potato puffs and the bruschetta we tried, except we asked for it to be served on pieces of toasted baguette instead of crackers. At our wedding, the hot potato puffs were served cold and the bruschetta was on cold, untoasted bread. The prime rib entree was chewy, dry, and overcooked (well done) instead of medium rare like we were promised. Disappointed with our vegetable medley from our tasting, Brenda offered maple-glazed carrots, but they came out bland and waterlogged at our wedding with no recognizable maple flavor. The service was disorganized and they appeared understaffed. Salads were brought out before our champagne toast and had to be taken back to the kitchen. The head table was preset, but was missing one salad (for the bride) that we never got and no one had champagne. Before we could do our toast, ONE PERSON took our champagne flutes two at a time to the kitchen to pour champagne for our 13-person table while everyone waited. This pushed back our entire timeline by 10 minutes and left my wife and me feeling rushed for the next two hours. The bartending service was fine during our reception, but really missed a few key things. We ordered our alcohol through Arrow Wine & Spirits (great service) that accepts returns of unopened bottles and cases. We informed Jasmine of this. After our wedding, we had 27 open cases of beer/seltzer/soda from only 4 brands, where many cases had only one can missing. This cost us hundreds of dollars in what we could not return. We also paid Jasmine's extra to rent their frozen drink machine, but were never told how much mix to order. We ran out of frozen drinks within the first hour so the machine felt like a waste. Finally, multiple people including my wife mentioned a blonde woman making passive aggressive comments to them. Of course things will go wrong at any event the size of a wedding, but 90% of what went wrong at ours was because of Jasmine Catering. We trusted them to deliver on what they promised and spent ~$12k for 140 people for them to do so. They might be better suited to serve buffet-style meals, but from our experience, they can't execute a plated-dinner service. If you're looking for that type of service and quality food, you should not consider Jasmine Catering. read more

Used Jasmine's for my sons wedding. The first meeting went great. Then the day of the wedding came. They were late, but that was OK. Everything was suppose to be ready BY 5PM. My niece, who is one of the sweetest people on earth, ask if everything was ready, at 5 mind you, and the owners daughter in law bit my nieces head off!! Said, "It will be ready when its ready!" We also did a pretzel bar and a nugget bar. Someone told the daughter in law, the pretzels are cold. She again, bit their heads off with "What do you want, you want them hot?!" No but at least warm would have been good. When we first met, we were told "we make our own cakes". The boxes said Ele. If i wanted a cake from Ele, I could have ordered it myself. We were also NOT TOLD that the nuggets for the nugget bar would be from Wendys, McDonalds & Chic fil la! If i had known that, I could have done that too. Spent WAY to much money for "drive thru food"! read more

We were unable to use Jasmine Catering for our wedding dinner due to they're being unavailable, but we opted to use them for bartending. The bartenders were amazing all night long. They remembered what many guests were drinking and would have their preferred drinks ready as they approached the bar. The bartenders were very fun and personable; our guests loved them! Brenda was so professional and great to plan and work with. We highly recommend! read more

We hired jasmine catering & bartending. It was an alright experience. The tasting and initial consultation was great, we felt good about the decision to book them. However, as our wedding approached, it became very difficult to communicate with them and have our questions answered. During the wedding, we had the charcuterie board for cocktail hour and for dinner we had turkey, ham, green beans, potatos, and salad. They had our guest count including vendors meals, yet when guests came to the buffet, the servers refused to give many of them adequate servings. They also said that they were going to run out of salad, even though they had our guest count. When you have a buffet, running out should never be a concern in my opinion. They should have not told guests that they were limited to only one meat, it gave a rude and stingy impression. During cocktail hour, they also ran out of many of the foods on the charcuterie board, yet they had ensured us that they would be constantly replenishing and not run out. My husband only had crackers and I only had a few strawberries, because they were out of everything halfway into the cocktail hour. They were kind to me, the bride, and the groom, but they told our family (father of groom) that he couldn't have ham since he got a slice of turkey. The food was good. Nothing crazy, just a good classic homestyle meal. If considering hiring them, I would ensure they know how to speak to guests in a kind way and that they have plenty of food so that they are not worried they will run out. read more

Professional and top notch service. The food was spectacular and the price was second to none. Would definitely recommend this caterer.

I can't speak on their catering however, my sister received bartending services through them for her wedding and the three bartenders that attended were extremely personable and very attentive to the crowd. I would highly recommend! read more

DO NOT HIRE. Jasmine catered my son's wedding this past Saturday night (12/10/22). Even though we had less guests than we confirmed, they did not have enough food. They laid out one table with plates of appetizers: meatballs or little hotdogs, shrimp, and fruit (as ordered). These plates were very attractive and were gone quickly. However, the remaining guests waited in line for the appetizers to be replenished. The additional plates were brought out 1 and 2 at a time. The shrimp was completely gone and the plates held only 1 or 2 strawberries and meatballs or little hot dogs. These plates were pitiful looking especially since the guests had to wait quite sometime to get them. I was hoping the dinner experience would be better. It was not. We paid for roast beef, fried chicken, twice baked mashed potatoes, macaroni and cheese, and green beans. We received plain mashed potatoes. No cheese, bacon, or gravy. As our guests came up to the servers, they were asked rather they wanted beef OR chicken. Some asked for both and were actually told no. Others were given a small chicken wing or thigh as their only protein. I paid for beef AND chicken, not either or. This caterer made us look cheap and believe me, they were not. I must say, in all honesty, what food was there was good. But as anyone who pays for a wedding knows, the last thing you want is some Vendor scrimping on the portions making you look like you cheaped out. I was very embarrassed and would not recommend Jasmine Catering to anyone. read more

Jasmine Catering had our attention from the get go because they were based out of Lebanon, their costs were not nearly as expensive as the 20 other places we checked out, she was quick to respond and very nice. She had us out to her place to sample food and it was very tasty! She was early to our wedding and the food was great! Thank you Brenda and team for being the caterer for our wedding! -Melissa and Will (Friday June 12 wedding) read more

We used Jasmine Catering for our wedding. Brenda was awesome and had us to her house for a tasting. Her and her team make all the food in her commercial kitchen in her garage. Food was great and reasonably priced so we decided to have them for our wedding. We emailed our food choices a few weeks before the wedding. They were on time, food was hot and DELICIOUS! We got the chicken marsala, pork with apples, mac & cheese, jasmine potatoes, salad, and fruit. They also included adorable mini mousse. I got a lot of compliments on the food. Brenda and her team were amazing and dealt with the storms we faced at our outdoor wedding like champs. We would absolutely use jasmine catering again and recommend them to anyone for any event!! read more
